Who's the most attractive Royal in your opinion?

[Teadrinker11]

Who's the most good looking Royal in your view? I feel Harry is by far the hotter brother right now, but in the greater scheme of things it's Prince Carl of Sweden. Damn.

Diana had that something, a star quality that transcended mere prettiness, especially as she got older. The Testino photos are just stunning.

I remember stories about her being annoyed that people said Sophie looked like her as she thought Sophie very average - miaow Diana! Looking back I think it was mainly the short blonde hair.

Catherine she is classy too

Grace Kelly was the ultimate.

I think Meghan is stunningly beautiful. Kate is quite pretty but has a hard looking face

I'm amazed people think Sophie Wessex! She has a pleasant enough face but just looks like a well kept, groomed, middle aged woman. I can't see it myself at all.

Kate is attractive, she's lucky with her hair and athletic figure.

Meghan is attractive too, I like her style of dressing most of the time.

Queen Letizia of Spain. I really love what she wears sometimes and I think she is beautiful.

Queen Paola of Belgium hasn't been mentioned yet and she was very beautiful in her day. I always thought no one could rival Grace Kelly until I saw a picture of Queen Paola when she was young.

I wonder how much the royal element adds to this, would it be the same thread without that

Having said that the Queen of Bhutan, pic below, is beautiful

And Charlotte C too

Oh two different things for me:

Zara = attractive (thread title)

Kate = good looking (opening post)

I dont understand the difference. Id say good looking and attractive mean the same thing.

Pretty and beautiful are different to good looking/attractive.

I think Kate is very pretty, verging on beautiful. I think Zara is very attractive/good looking.

Paola was gorgeous. Beatrice Borromeo has a look of her but apart from them both being Italian I don't think they're related!

KillingMeDeftly I forgot Beatrice Borromeo! She's very pretty and stylish, she looked great at Monaco's last National Day.

I also think Beatrice has lovely hair. It3s a beautiful colour.

Henry VIII - all those wives means he must have been a hottie.

Henry VIII apparently spread a nasty stench everywhere he went due to an infection that made the flesh from one of his legs rot but perhaps that was considered very sexy back then.

That was much later in life after he had a wound on his leg that didn't heal. As a young man he was considered very handsome but I have no doubt that his later wives didn't marry him for his sexiness!

Or for his loving way of treating his past wifes

Wives

Of those who WERE good-looking royals, Princess Margaret, Prince Philip and Prince William of Gloucester.

Of those who ARE, K and M are both lovely in different ways. One has a very even face and the other's has an assymetry which doesn't take away from her looks at present.

I love people’s observations about Kate and Meghan’s general demeanour.

I agree that Kate holds herself very well and has a regal bearing. She looks every inch the Queen, elegant and graceful.

Meghan, on the other hand, appears very girl-next-door. She’s stunning looking but seems very approachable and relaxed. I feel like I could go over and have a conversation with her and she would be lovely.

I’m still fan girling over Beatrice Borromeo! She looks like she walked straight out of a Botticelli painting 😍

Meghan Markle is beautiful.

Beatrice Borromeo is stunning, never noticed her before.

She’s beautiful

I think some of the European royals run rings in good looking stakes

Royal by birth: Zara Tindall

Royal by marriage: Meghan Markle

I agree Charlotte Casiraghi of Monaco.

Her mother Princess Caroline was stunning and is still a very beautiful woman, has aged naturally and without surgery, fillers or botox.

Harry is definitely the better of his generation of male royals, which is a sad reflection on the Royal male gene pool.

When I was young I thought Caroline was the most beautiful woman in the world.

I can remember reading a news article about the D & D of Cambridge visiting Canada/Nth America early on, before kids.

Some journalist made a comment like 'In New York, Kate would be simply be another vaguely attractive woman walking down the street'.

Harsh for sure, but true.

Yes Meghan Markle is beautiful but I don't think she really counts as a Royal any longer, does she? Otherwise I'd have mentioned her for sure.

It would be the same in London, were she not the future Queen.
